Answer:

Osmosis

Explanation:

Osmosis is the process of movement of water molecules from the region of its higher concentration (hypotonic) to that of the lower concentration (hypertonic).

Here, two solutions of different solute concentration are separated by a membrane that allows the movement of water molecules through it. Osmosis is a passive movement and does not require an input of energy as it is driven by the concentration gradient.

What pet ownership trend began in the 17th century? Why was this trend so popular and has it continued today?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Pet keeping wasn't generally accepted in Europe until the end of the 17th century, and it wasn't common among the middle classes until the late 18th century. Pet keeping in its present form is probably a 19th century Victorian invention. At this time, it was perceived as a link with the natural world, which itself was no longer seen as threatening. It also allowed a visible demonstration of man's domination over nature.

In present-day societies, dogs have a number of functional roles, from ornamental to status symbol, as helpers, and as companions. Dogs can also act as a channel for personal expression because people express their personality in the breed they own. For example, rare breeds are often used as indicators of status. Guide dogs for blind people and hearing dogs for deaf people are examples of pets who are kept as helpers.

But the most common reason for owning pets in Western societies is companionship. In recent years, there's been a growing awareness of the very positive effects this relationship can have on human health and psychological well-being, and a recognition of the therapeutic value of companion animals.

Which information could a student determine from only the chemical formula of a protein? A) The color of the protein B) The numb
satela [25.4K]

Answer: D) The number of atoms of each element of the protein

Explanation: A chemical formula of a protein or any compound is the representation of the number of atoms of each element present in that protein or compound using chemical symbols and numbers. A symbol of an element consists of either the initial letter or the initial letter with one small letter from its name. Examples: symbol of carbon atom is C and the symbol of calcium atom is Ca. In writing chemical formula of a compound, the number of atoms of an element present in the compound is usually written as a subscript to the symbol of that element. Example: The chemical formula of glucose is C6H12O6, this means that there are six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms in one molecule of glucose.
